  1. Great wontons! I cooked them in my deep fryer and they were delicious. I did cheat a little by buying fresh pineapple pico de gallo from the grocery store. These wontons make a great party appetizer.<br/>Made for the Tailgating Tag - Diabetic Forum.
     
  2. I don't let the 5% fat fool you, these are not health food. They are very greasy. The flavor is good and I will be making the pineapple salsa again, next time served with tortilla chips instead of the wontons.
     
  3. PaulaG... LOVE LOVE these! Made them for a post Xmas not quite New Years party we hosted over the holiday. These were gobbled up! I only got one, but I am not bitter! I like the other reviewers idea about the super bowl. Thanks for a keeper. Happy New Year!
     
  4. I had all the ingrdients, so made this for Zaar tag, and so glad I did! Delicious, different, what more can I say?

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called. Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com. Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net. Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
